Algorithm_Oracle



Algorithm Oracle is a digital ritual (hosted at algorithmoracle.cargo.site) that reimagines the ancient I Ching through the lens of modern stochastic data consumption. The system operates via three binary dice, executing a precise sequence: 
 (0) the user formulates a question; (1) the first roll converts binary data to decimal to determine the scroll count; (2) the second defines the platform (Instagram Reels, TikTok, or YouTube Shorts); and (3) the resulting video serves as the oracle’s response.

This web platform functions as a "digital altar," providing instructions and open-source 3D files for decentralized manufacturing. Conceptually, the project interrogates the structural influence of code, rendering visible the authority that opaque algorithms exercise over human decision-making.
This project was selected as a finalist at the '24 Hour Creative People' event at OFFF Sevilla 2025.  As a festival with a distinguished legacy and a leading reference in the global design community, OFFF provided a prestigious context to further expand upon the project's discourse.

bitBloc



Awarded First Prize at the V Andalusian Industrial Design Competition, this project was conceived to enhance accessibility within the Interactive Music Museum of Málaga (MIMMA). The initiative addressed the strategic need for inclusive pedagogical tools, specifically targeting children and visually impaired users in museum environments.

The solution, bitBloc, is a tactile, modular musical instrument designed to democratize music composition. The system operates through a central sequencer that establishes the rhythmic signature. Users physically connect distinct sound modules to this core, which can be further modulated by attaching specific effect blocks, allowing for an intuitive, tangible exploration of sound synthesis without requiring prior musical training.

Beyond the industrial design and 3D modeling, the project required a comprehensive visual identity system. Prioritizing accessibility, the branding, signage, and instructional graphics were rigorously designed for high-contrast readability. The final concept was validated through a non-functional 3D-printed prototype and a video demonstration , securing the top distinction in the regional competition.

uma.es


Selected as the winning proposal in the official design competition organized by the University of Málaga, this project defines the new visual identity for the institution’s commercial and merchandising ecosystem. The initiative was driven by the strategic necessity to resolve copyright constraints associated with the original Picasso dove while retaining the university's symbolic heritage.

The solution executes a precise geometric synthesis of two core elements: the dove, preserving institutional legacy, and the circle, representing the "radiant sun"—a historical motif linked to Málaga since the Phoenician era. Technically, the isotype is strictly constructed through a grid of tangent circles, ensuring mathematical harmony and structural balance.

Beyond the logo, this geometric foundation expands into a comprehensive, modular visual system. By deconstructing and recombining the dove, circles, and solar rays, the identity generates a dynamic range of patterns designed for apparel, retail products, and digital communication channels.

Blumen


The development of Blumen was rooted in a user-centered design methodology, prioritizing direct interaction with the target audience. We conducted several ethnographic research visits to various schools and kindergartens. This hands-on approach allowed us to observe children's natural play behaviors, identify their preferences, and gather crucial feedback on block size, material feel, and interactive elements. The insights gathered from these in-field experiments were instrumental in refining the product's safety features, optimizing the light-changing mechanism of the totem, and ensuring the toy effectively balanced open-ended construction with guided sensory engagement, thereby validating Blumen's potential as a valuable early childhood development tool.

To effectively communicate the product’s ecosystem, we produced a comprehensive explainer video that functions as both a technical demonstration and a commercial spot. This visual piece meticulously showcases the light-interaction mechanics, demonstrating how the environment transforms as the user toggles the totem. To enhance the immersive experience, the video features a custom-composed soundtrack, specifically designed to synchronize with the sensory shifts of the toy. This multidisciplinary approach ensured that the project's core value—the magic of light and construction—was communicated clearly and engagingly to both educators and stakeholders."
A defining aspect of the project was the close collaboration with a primary school in the province of Málaga. This partnership allowed for an iterative validation process where children interacted with multiple prototypes at various stages of development. By observing their engagement in a real-world educational setting, we were able to pivot the design based on tangible user feedback. These on-site testing sessions were crucial for refining the ergonomics of the blocks and perfecting the intuitive nature of the light-totem interaction, ensuring the final product was perfectly tailored to the developmental needs of its young users.


Albea


Albea is a temporary, modular rest capsule, conceived as an industrial design solution aimed at companies and institutions (such as airports, hospitals, and offices) looking to provide a brief, private, and secure rest area for users and employees in high-traffic environments. 

The capsule's design prioritizes optimized logistics and sustainability (recyclable materials and a circular approach), highlighted by its lightweight, modular structure. The capsule is sold disassembled and allows for rapid assembly, facilitated by a clear instruction manual, a system of sliding connections, and the use of standardized parts that simplify its deployment. Furthermore, 

Albea ensures effective rest in noisy environments through excellent thermal and acoustic insulation, offering the necessary ergonomics for total comfort.

Vexxx


Designed to define the visual presence of the emerging Afro, Drill, and Trap scene in Southern Spain, this project establishes the comprehensive brand identity for Vexxx. Hosted at Sala Core—the undisputed nucleus of Málaga's underground culture—the initiative was driven by the necessity to visually translate the raw energy of the genre into a cohesive graphic language capable of standing out in a saturated nightlife market.

The solution articulates a high-contrast aesthetic centered on a stylized "gangster" isotype, which serves as the brand's iconic avatar. Typographically, the system employs a heavy oblique font family, selected for its aggressive visual velocity and structural versatility. Chromatically, the identity relies on a strict binary palette: a visceral red, chosen to evoke urgency and aggression, grounded against a deep black background.

AA-GLC



In a near-future scenario characterized by hyper-optimized, synthetic, and hermetically sealed electronic devices, the AA-GLC project introduces a radical new form of intervention: symbiotic, biodegradable vandalism. This concept challenges the permanence and closed nature of modern technology by temporarily disabling objects like vapes or USB ports using living, organic matter.

The core of the system is the application method: a specialized thermal spray base used to deploy a unique bioplastic mixture composed of Agar-Agar, Glycerin, and Water (71%/21%/7%). This carefully formulated compound serves as a temporary, living habitat for sprouting seeds, such as lentil, bean, or corn.

For a period ranging from 4 to 7 days, the target technological object is rendered partially unusable as the sprouts establish themselves and the bioplastic solidifies. Crucially, this intervention is non-destructive; the bioplastic gradually dries out and naturally degrades, leaving the object functional again and entirely free of synthetic residue.
